Describe the problem The Row ID sometimes jumps several numbers when we add a single row, which also screws up the autonumber function. This has happened on several Tables. The only way to fix it is to reset the autonumber but that creates opportunity for incorrectly renaming entries. I am not sure …

Happened again on several table. It looks like it might be happening without any user input: as if invisible rows were created and deleted over the weekend and I only notice what happenned when I create a new row on Monday.

@olgatrykush is there any chance that this gets fixed in the near future? These non-consecutive lines are really threatening the operability of our database in the medium term, so if there is no fix I will need to move to another provider… Combined with other issues such as the lines changing order…

Hello @FrancoisS , unfortunately we’re not able to replicate the issue and we don’t have any other report of similar issues. Given that we’re using a sequence in the database, the most likely explanation is that the transaction fails after the sequence values have been generated but before they are…

Hi @davide , We are not self-hosting, but we are using Eduroam to connect to the internet. Do you think that might be causing issues? I know they have strange configuration parameters (e.g. I can receive but not send messages on some dating apps while on Eduroam) and the connection is not particular…

I don’t know if this helps but creating an entry can take up to a few seconds, but it does create the entry in the end. So it might be failing several times in completing the entry creation, but it always works in the end. Even when it skips 30 lines, we only clicked once.

@davide something new happened that might give you more information. In short, I changed a formula yesterday. This morning, a colleague noticed that one of the dependant columns returned a nonsensical value, and it looked like my change had been cancelled. After refreshing my page, everything went b…

I’m also very much interested in these errors. While the ones experienced by my team pertain mainly to filters and sorting, I was able to associate at least some of them with “synchronisation” issues, similar to the ones reported in this thread. This is an example of the error co-occurring with th…

None of the problems I reported in this thread happened in the presence of the “Connection to the server has failed” error message. But maybe these problems happen when the connection is lost, and only become apparent after connection is re-established?

One of the issues we encountered was that the table contents (rows) seems to refresh upon scrolling, even with the message present, while the rest of the app (filters, sorting, etc) seems to stay “out of sync” (so it works with the data before the refresh) - and that seems to create discrepancies fo…

Hey @Edouard, sorry for the delay! I checked with the team, and we don’t see any bugs on our side. Could it be the same reason in your case?
